Essay 41. Compare and contrast the mechanisms of action of lipid-soluble vs. water-soluble hormones.
![Page 21: PHYSIOLOGY](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5695d0d51a28ab9b02941187/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Ans: Upon reaching their targets, lipid-soluble hormones diffuse through the
phospholipid bilayer of the target cell membrane and bind to receptors in the cytosol or nucleus. The activated receptor turns a gene on or off, thus regulating synthesis of a protein. Water-soluble hormones bind to membrane receptors, activating a G protein, which activates adenylate cyclase, which converts ATP to the second messenger cAMP, which activates a protein kinase to regulate enzyme action. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 18.4 42. Describe the role of the hypothalamus in the regulation of the pituitary gland.
Ans: The hypothalamus is the integrating center for much sensory input. It secretes releasing and inhibiting hormones which diffuse into the hypophyseal portal system to regulate secretion of all hormones from the anterior pituitary gland. It also contains receptors that monitor blood osmotic pressure and neural input from reproductive structures. Integration of this input leads to production of ADH and OT by neurosecretory cells. These hormones are then transported through the hypothalamohypophyseal tract to be secreted by exocytosis from the posterior pituitary in response to nerve impulses. Difficulty: medium Feedback: 18.6 43. Enuresis, or bedwetting, may be caused by psychological, anatomical or physiological factors. In the latter case, vasopressin is often prescribed and is a very effective treatment. What is vasopressin? How can it prevent enuresis?
Ans: Vasopressin is also called antidiuretic hormone or ADH. In addition to its vasoconstrictive effects, ADH causes the kidneys to reabsorb more water. Someone who does not make enough ADH may not be able to contain all of the urine produced while they are sleeping. If they are not awakened by the pressure in their urinary bladder, they may wet the bed instead of getting up and going to the toilet. Since vasopressin helps the body reabsorb more water, a person’s bladder should not get so full that they end up wetting the bed while sleeping.

44. Describe and explain the similarities between starvation and diabetes mellitus.
![Page 22: PHYSIOLOGY](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051821/5695d0d51a28ab9b02941187/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Ans: A starving person is lacking energy-providing nutrient sources, and so, must
use structural components of the body as energy sources. The diabetic consumes adequate nutrients, but due to the lack of insulin, is unable to move glucose into cells, and so, cannot use the nutrients. In both cases, energy generation is dependent on non-glucose sources, such as fatty acids and amino acids. Mobilization and metabolism of fats and proteins for energy production purposes leads to ketoacidosis, weight loss, and hunger. Difficulty: hard Feedback: 18.10
